My daughter was a transfer from Sutter health, so I expect high quality care. I was hesitant coming to a new office. I was shocked how clean everything was, the girls at the desk were pleasant and helpful. My daughter saw Erol Deculing who by the way is not a doctor nor claims to be one, according to the comment before mine. He is a Nurse Practitioner. His wife is a doctor. He was very understanding of my daughter only wanting to see a female and made sure he did not touch her in anyway. So, far I like the office. If that changes I will be back.

Worst experience ever!!!!!! Definitely does not act like a professional doctor. Dr. Erol gives you a good first expression, and then it's all down hill from that point on. They don't follow up or follow through with referrals. Even when you call if they can't answer there is NO answering machine or medical exchange. It took three months to get my lab results after calling numerous times to get a follow up appointment, and when I finally do Dr. Erol comes into the room very defensive blaming me for not following up, really!!! He does not have any qualities of a genuine doctor who is supposed to care for his patients. Dr. Erol should not even be allowed to call himself a doctor, so he definitely should be revoked of his privileges of being a doctor. Definitely does not follow any code of conduct. Dr. Erol you should be ashamed of yourself!!!! A educated person as yourself should not ACT like that with any patients, REGARDLESS!!! Not to mention what a judgemental person Dr. Erol is!!!!

Horrible experience from a horrible, rather simple minded PA, that obviously was one of those bottom feeders that almost didn't make it, but somehow managed to become licensed after skating his way through college and not paying much attention.After having a recent and extensivse brain surgery, I lost my private insurance and was forced to apply for MediCal. I was awaiting MediCal activation when I had a horridly painful pop at the base of my skill. In excruciating pain, I thought inxould perhaps avoid an elongated ER visit and go to urgent care to receive threameant for my severe pain (verified by my neurosurgeon in DC) yet this inept PA (punk a$$) refused and surely made a false assumption and chalked me up as a med seeker I am sure! Hey I am the furthest thing from this as I have legitimate chronic genetic diseases that cause severe pain that was well documented in my medical record that I brought with me that covers all medical care I've received for the last 15 years. Needless to say, I left in tears with a script for tylenol 3. Asshats.

I am at this place now. And they have Fox News on. How unprofessional. There is a reason Fox's audience is almost entirely white. A company which wants to be welcoming to all people should not have Fox News on

I went to Gay after a really bad breakup and general depression from a high stress job. I was looking for some encouragement and support. All I got was constant criticism and blame. Instead of feeling better, lighter, less stressed after counseling, I started feeling more and more dragged down. After so many appointments like this I decided to bring this up only to be immediately shot down because apparently I wasn’t the one seeing things clearly. That is when I decided to stop seeing Gay. I did eventually start seeing another counselor who was more supportive and who actually had some empathy, unlike Gay, but I am still feeling the effects of the mental abuse she put me through. If you suffer from depression then do yourself a favor and go to another counselor. Sadly, you will not find the help you need here.
